   Telecom Billing Event Sources

Billing system events are measures of network usage. Events can be stored in the network device (Data Collector) for transfer at predetermined time intervals, when a specific value has been reached (event trigger) or when the billing system requests the information (called polling).

Some common event sources include central office switches, routers, and application servers. Central office switches are devices that route calls from one subscriber to another. They track the time one port is connected to another port. Routers are intelligent switches that forward packets toward their destination based on their routing address (and possibly type of content). Routers can track the amount of data that is routed between two ports over a period of time. Application servers are computers that process information at the request of a customer (called a client), and can track the beginning (launching) and termination of an application.

Inter-carrier settlements are becoming more complicated with deregulation. To encourage fair competition, some governments are requiring existing (incumbent) telecommunication companies to unbundled network elements (UNE). Unbundling is the process of separating portions of a telecommunication network that are owned or operated by a service provider. It is a common term used to describe the separation of standard telephone equipment and services to allow competing telephone service providers to gain fair access to parts of incumbent telephone company systems. An example of an unbundled service is for the incumbent phone company to lease access to the copper wire line that connects an end user to the local telephone company. The competing company may install high-speed data modems (such as ADSL) on the copper line to enhancing the value of the telecommunications service.
